Default Anyone have pics of LEDs in Trans Am Gauge Cluster?

I am going to remove the cluster to apply tape over the Service Vehicle and ABS lights after doing !ABS. I thought while I was in there, I could replace the bulbs with some brighter LEDs. Does anyone have pictures of this? And any bulb recommendations? Thought I get get some white LEDs for a nicer light display.

If you have the stock overlays, it will still light up red. I have a 6le overlay with white LEDs/needles, and I love the look(Id get pics but I dont have a camera).

Go to superbrightleds.com and get the WLED-xhp6. you will need five of them.

Under the sticky tab. The guy that changed all his gauges, even the steering wheel ones. It's a TA. It looks awesome.
I have a Camaro and changed to red LEDs and didn't need an over. They are the big LEDs though.

Nice just saw it

What I am looking to do is stay with the red on the gauge cluster. Would getting new white LEDs make it brighter?

^^No. Go with red. Either xHP5 or xHP6 bulbs will be fine.

I would assume so. The red ones I got seem way brighter than stock. My friend got blur LEDs with an overlay and they don't seem as bright. I'm guessing cause of the overlay though. He bought the smaller size of the LEDs though.
